Disneyland installing automated turnstiles in $4.8 million entrance makeover – Daily News

A $4.8 million project that will overhaul the Disneyland and Disney California Adventure entrance pavilions with 62 new automated entry gates will be completed in phases to limit the impact of construction.

Work to remove and replace the turnstiles at the Disneyland and Disney California Adventure entrances will begin later in the year, according to Disneyland officials.

“We will take a phased approach to construction, working on one turnstile bank at a time to minimize impacts to arrivals,” a Disneyland spokesperson told KTLA.

The project is expected to start at Disney California Adventure before moving across the esplanade to Disneyland’s main entrance, according to MiceChat.

Disneyland will remove the existing entrance turnstiles and install 38 new automatic entry gates, according to Anaheim building reports. Disney California Adventure will install 24 automatic entry gates after removing existing entrance turnstiles, according to the building reports.

Both entrance makeovers will also add fixed manual gates, removable railings and overhead shrouds.
